Life Lately

I feel like it’s been a while. And I’m sorry about that. Except while I have been a little MIA from here, I have enjoying a crazy, love-filled, exciting and emotional journey called real life.

I love life. I’m not sure if you could tell by reading my posts. But I really, truly love living the life I get to live. And taking a minute away from a computer screen just reminds me that it’s a very, very good thing to step back, smell the fresh-cut grass, bask in the sun, enjoy a Limearita (so good!), bake cookies just because I want to, and really enjoy our friends and family. All without worrying about food photography, SEO, unique visitors and tweets.

As I write this post, it’s the end to a four-day weekend full of so many things I love. We crammed a lot into four days but I wouldn’t have changed one single minute of it. My heart is so full because of it and I know that I need to spend my time doing those things that fill my soul to the brim. This blog does do that, YOU all do that, without a doubt and I miss it here, so I’m going to get this life/work/blog/church/friends/fun thing all balanced out eventually. Until then, enjoy some photos from my life lately.

Love this. I’m happy for you that you are finding a balance with it all. It’s easy to let it take over your life and get caught up in it all without realizing that it turned from something that gives joy into something that robs you of joy. Balance is totally the key. Thanks for sharing your pics 🙂

This was one of the first weekends in a while where I actively tried to avoid checking my email, comments, analytics, etc. to just focus on the NOW. I’m glad you’re starting to find some balance – it’s so different for everyone and you really have to be in tune with yourself to realize what you need. Enjoy life this week 🙂

You sound like you are doing just fine Cassie! I can feel your love for your life through the words in this post, and it makes me so happy. Life balance has always been a struggle for me. I get it. Hope you have a great week friend!!

What a sweet post, Cassie. It’s so easy to get caught up in everything, particularly technology, and forget to smell the proverbial roses. You juggle so much – it’s so good to hear that you’re enjoying it and getting some time to catch your breath!
